Deep dives

US Credit Rating Outlook

Moody's has changed the outlook on the US credit rating from stable to negative, signaling a potential future downgrade. This is due to factors such as rising interest rates, increasing government spending, mountainous debt, and political polarization. The credit rating agencies have largely ignored the United States' precarious financial situation despite its massive debt. If the government fails to address these issues, it could have a significant impact on the markets.
